• Become an Eagles' Circle Champion

  2025 marks the 75th anniversary of the amalgamation of St. John’s College School with Ravenscourt School to become St. John’s-Ravenscourt School. To celebrate this milestone, we are introducing the SJR75 Eagles’ Circle Champion initiative that will assist your personal journey of philanthropy to create meaningful opportunities that support current needs (Athletic Centre Revitalization, campus sustainability, and innovation), create an enduring fund through the SJR Foundation, and provide a planned gift by leaving a legacy.
  
  

  The Eagles’ Circle celebrates donors who have contributed a minimum of $25,000 in cumulative lifetime giving. Donors are permanently recognized in publications, on donor walls throughout the School, and acknowledged at an annual reception held exclusively for Eagles’ Circle champions.
  
  Your commitment to becoming an Eagles' Circle Champion can be fulfilled over multiple years. Donations made to date in support of current and enduring needs will apply towards this initiative.
  
  It would be our pleasure to help you develop a plan to become an Eagles’ Circle Champion. 

• Supporting Current Needs

  Tom Bredin Athletic Centre Revitalization 
  

  On October 3, 2023, the doors of Dutton Memorial Arena opened to a new reconfigured NHL-sized rink, five new changing rooms, a new ice plant, significant structural upgrades and a new building envelope to ensure the future of the arena for another 50 years.
  
  

  A viewing area above the new changing rooms offer spectators a superb view of athletes. A newly expanded entrance to the building, including an elevator, provides upgraded access to the entire athletics complex. At the end of the hockey season, artificial turf will replace the ice surface and serve as a multipurpose indoor facility for all students. As a result, students will be able to play soccer, rugby, and Ultimate, and enjoy a wide variety of track and field events as well as other sports. Hundreds of students, all playing different sports, will benefit.
